Thirty-two novel 2-amino-1-[3-oxo-3-(substituted-anilino)propyl]pyridinium nitrate derivatives were designed and prepared via one-pot tandem reactions. The structure of the 2-methylanilino derivative was characterised by X-ray crystallographic analysis. In addition, a potential formation mechanism is proposed.

Herein, we report a base-promoted Zn(II)–bis(oxazoline)-catalyzed one-pot Friedel–Crafts alkylation/Michael addition of 3-(indol-4-yl)acrylonitrile derivatives with trans-β-nitrostyrenes to yield the tricyclic core of the ergoline skeleton in up to 71% yield and 85% ee. During the purification of 3-(indol-4-yl)acrylonitrile, the key substrate for catalytic studies, a novel trans-cis-trans-cyclobutane derivative, thought to be formed via a [2+2] light-promoted cycloaddition, was identified by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Finally, a novel class of 4-substituted bis(indole)methane derivatives were serendipitously prepared in excellent yield by reacting 4-substituted indole derivatives with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde. One bis(indole)methane was characterized by X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Axisymmetric Configuration

Isomers provide more possibilities for the structure of organic compounds. Molecular structures determine their corresponding properties, therefore the intrinsic relationship between structure and properties of isomers is of great research value. Isomers with a stable structure and excellent performance possess more potential for development and application. In this paper, we design and synthesize structural isomers with different molecular symmetries based on the asymmetric structure of imidazole and the symmetrical structure of pyrene. Isomers with stable molecular structures can be obtained by a simple and efficient “one-pot” reaction, involving axisymmetric configuration and centrosymmetric configuration. Using this “click-like” reaction, the structure of target molecules is controllable and adjustable. Furthermore, the effect of molecular configurations on molecular stacking of crystal is studied. The variation of the optical and thermal properties, the optimized structures, and orbital distributions of isomers depends on different molecular geometry with different symmetry, which are revealed by crystallographic analysis. This present strategy provides an efficient synthetic method for the design and synthesis of structural isomers based on pyrene–imidazole.

A chiral tricyclic terpene possessing a 6,6,6-tricyclic framework and a 3,3-dimethyl-7-oxooctylidenyl side chain undergoes a double ring-closing reaction to give two chiral pentacyclic terpenes in a ratio of 4:3 via an intramolecular Michael addition followed by aldol condensation under basic conditions. Three new stereogenic centers are introduced in the initial Michael annulation reaction. Stereoselective installation of an ethoxycarbonyl group at C17 of the two pentacyclic terpenes separately gives the corresponding highly functionalized pentacyclic terpenoids with seven stereogenic centers. The structures and stereochemistry of key intermediates and products are established through X-ray crystallographic analysis. A mechanism is proposed for explaining the stereochemistry in the Michael annulation reaction.

Diphenylboron Chelates

The diphenylboron chelates of ketoxime adducts to formaldehyde and trichloroacetaldehyde (chloral) have been synthesized. The reactions were carried out as three-component one-pot reactions, and also as two-step reactions for the ketoxime chloral adducts, which were isolated and characterized before reaction with oxybis(diphenylborane) to form the diphenylboron chelates. One of the intermediate adducts and two of the diphenylboron chelates have been characterized by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Crystals of O-(2,2,2-trichloro-1-hydroxyethyl)-2-propanonoxime, 8d, are monoclinic, a = 7.010(2), b = 11.832(3), c = 11.684(2) Å, β = 90.48(2)°, Z = 4, space group P21/c; those of 4-isopropylidene-2,2-diphenyl-1,3-dioxa-4-azonia-2-boratacyclopentane, 9a, are orthorhombic, a = 11.098(2), b = 15.364(1), c = 8.715(2) Å, Z = 4, space group P212121; and those of 5-trichloromethyl-2-isopropylidene-3,3-diphenyl-1,4-dioxa-2-azonia-3-boratacyclopentane, 10d, are monoclinic, a = 9.164(2), b = 15.304(3), c = 13.859(2) Å, β = 105.28(1)°, Z = 4, space group P21/n. The structures were solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.037, 0.044, and 0.040 (Rw = 0.041, 0.016, and 0.042) for 1082, 1256, and 3062 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(F2), respectively. The X-ray analyses show that the products from the reaction between acetonoxime, oxybis(diphenylborane), and formaldehyde or trichloroacetaldehyde, respectively, possess different boron chelate structures. With formaldehyde a COBON chelate ring is obtained and with trichloroacetaldehyde a BOCON chelate ring is formed. Keywords: boron chelates, boron compounds, organboron compounds, crystal structures.

Hemocyanin of the horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus) has been studied in nany ways. Recently the structure, dissociation and reassembly was studied using electron microscopy of negatively stained specimens as the method of investigation. Crystallization of the protein proved to be possible and X-ray crystallographic analysis was started. Also fluorescence properties of the hemocyanin after dialysis against Tris-glycine buffer + 0.01 M EDTA pH 8.9 (so called “stripped” hemocyanin) and its fractions II and V were studied, as well as functional properties of the fractions by NMR. Finally the temperature-jump method was used for assaying the oxygen binding of the dissociating molecule and of preparations of isolated subunits. Nevertheless very little is known about the structure of the intact molecule. Schutter et al. suggested that the molecule possibly consists of two halves, combined in a staggered way, the halves themselves consisting of four subunits arranged in a square.
